Flavour is champagne-like, with lots of tart plums, dry apple skins, and huge barnyard funk. Aggressive carbonation that is fitting for what this is. Very good.

Poured from 750mL bottle. Clear-ish gold with minimal white head. Feint fizzy carbonation with a touch of pear, but the crabapple takes over here. Decent.

Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 6 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 6.5
355mL can, pours a cloudy blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out gently funky apple core, tart apricot, and crisp apple skins. Flavour is dry and bright, with lots of tart apple core, tart apricot, and gentle funk. Moderately-to-heavily acidic, with plenty of apple core on the finish. Unnecessarily alcoholic, which doesn't bring with it any added complexity or depth. It's not bad, but isn't terribly interesting.
